10、Internetthe user passwordis under fire now. Actually, its been under fire for a long time.In an ideal world, people would use a long string composed of completely random characters, numbers and symbols. Furthermore, a unique password would be used for every site or application the user uses. Unfortu

11、nately, the more complex the passwords become, the more people are likely to forget them. The longer the passwords are, the more easily forgotten they are. Therefore, people use the same password for every service or application. It is a no-no and extremely defeats the purpose of a password.Google i

12、s trying to kill off the user password, at least on Android devices by introducing the Trust API, which does what simple passwords cannot. It gives developers a framework for securing their applications using a number of security system and metrics (衡量標準) on the device. A Trust Score will be generat

13、ed based on the metrics the device gathers and will allow or deny access to applications based on whether or not your Trust Score is high enough.The Trust Score will be generated based on metrics like your device location, face scanning and fingerprint, and the things like your typing speed or the w

14、ay you speak. Taken one at a time, these metrics are not secure. But taken together, these metrics will help define the real “you”.Passwords have been around since the dawn of computing and although the security of systems has been improved, they haven9t done much to improve the usability of systems

15、. Google appears to have the best of both worldsa highly secure system that end users won even notice. Maybe that never-ending conflict between security and convenience will be able to take a break once the trust system comes out.1、Why are passwords severely criticized?AThey cant protect users again

19、levisions.Is all this staring bad for us? It might be，mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy.While its true that light can damage our eyes u

20、nder certain circumstances，theres no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes.But many people still think it is，which is why blue lightblocking glasses are so popular.So do the glasses work?“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye，but

21、theres no evidence that it may be causing serious damage，”Dr.Rahul Khurana，clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmologists，told Business Insider.Blue light exposure is nothing new.In fact，the sun is the largest source of blue light.Moreover，blue light is also present in LED light.But

22、 if blue light isnt harmful，then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when were looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲勞):More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain.And blue light，it seems，isnt the cause.Instead，our eyes are so strained beca

23、use most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices.So if eyestrain is the real issue，blue light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.1、What do we know about blue light?AIt is a kind of nuclear radiation.BIt has the shortest wavelength.CIt may come from electronic devices.DIt consu

All memb

26、ers of the human species understand it. Unlike English or French or Swahili, we dont have to learn to speak it. We re born with the capacity to laugh.Very little is known about the specific brain mechanisms responsible for laughter. Contrary to folk wisdom, most laughter is not about humor; it is ab

27、out relationships. To find out when and why people laugh, I went with several assistants to local malls and recorded what happened just before people laughed. Over a 10-year period, we studied over 2,000 cases of naturally occurring laughter.We found that most laughter does not necessarily follow jo

28、kes. People may laugh after a variety of statements, such as, “Here comes Mary,” “How did you do on the test?” or “Do you have a rubber band?” These certainly arent jokes.We believe laughter evolved from the panting (喘氣的) behavior of our ancient ancestors. Today, if we tickle (使發(fā)癢) chimps, they dont

29、 laugh. But, instead, they produce a panting sound. Thats the sound of ape laughter, and its the root of human laughter.Apes laugh in the kinds of situations that lead to human laughter, like games that involve chasing. Other animals produce sounds during play, but they are so different from laughte

30、r. Rats, for example, produce high sounds during play and when tickled, but these are very different in sound from human laughter.Laughter is often positive, but it can be negative too. Theres a difference between “l(fā)aughing with” and “l(fā)aughing at”. People who laugh at others may be trying to drive t

31、hem out of the group.No one has actually counted how much people of different ages laugh, but young children probably laugh the most. At ages 5 and 6 we probably laugh more than at any other times. Adults laugh less than children, probably because they play less.Work now underway will tell us more a

32、bout the brain mechanisms behind laughter, how it has evolved, and why were so susceptible to tickling.1、What was the purpose of the decades research?ATo prove that people laugh because of humour.BTo find out the real reason for people s laughter.CTo research people s different reaction on jokes.DTo

43、hic (巨石的) tombs in Ireland and Sweden.The evidence suggests that megaliths, prehistoric large stone structures, sometimes acted as graves for family groups in northwestern Europe thousands of years ago.

45、ish island in the Baltic Sea.This analysis showed that many of the individuals buried at each megalith, who all lived between 3,800 BCand 2,600 BC, according to radiocarbon-dating of their remains, were closely related via family ties.The results also showed that the individuals buried at the megali

46、ths were related to Neolithic farmers in northern and western Europe but genetically distinct from other hunter-gatherers. This was particularly noticeable at the Ansarve site on the island of Gotland. “The people buried in the Ansarve tomb are remarkably different on a genetic level compared to the

47、 individuals dug out from hunter-gather contexts, showing that the burial tradition in this megalithic tomb, which lasted for over 700 years, was performed by distinct groups with roots in the European Neolithic expansion,” Magdalena Fraser, co-first author from Uppsala University, said in the state
